Type in a terminal: which -a lilypond You'll see all the lilypond binaries **that are installed in your path**. In order to see which directories are included in the path variable, type in a terminal: echo $PATH I guess that v2.12.3 is in /usr/bin. Please paste the output of previous command (echo $PATH). If I remember correctly, you missed /home/tsang/bin and there was also some strange path. > How to install lilypond v2.15.1? Will the install of v2.15.1 override > v2.14.1? You can install it as you installed v2.14.1. It won't override the previous installation if you choose a different path. The easiest way is installing as root: sudo sh lilypond-2.15.1-1.linux-x86.sh It will be installed in /usr/local For example I have: $ which -a lilypond /home/fede/bin/lilypond /usr/local/bin/lilypond /usr/bin/lilypond $ echo $PATH /home/fede/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games As you can see, my first lilypond binary is /home/fede/bin/lilypond because /home/fede/bin is the first path. That means that if I type: lilypond /home/fede/bin/lilypond will be actually executed In order to use the other binaries in the terminal, I must specify the absolute path: /usr/local/bin/lilypond HTH, Federico _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
